I Want to Know.
Q. I watch every week without fail. All the characters are unique and interesting! By the way, I really love "Benten-sama" who appeared in episodes 2 and 30. However, I don't know who voiced "Benten-sama". Who is it? And will "Benten-sama" not appear anymore? Please let me know!! Enami Senri, Ibaraki City, Osaka Prefecture
A. For some reason, there are many fans of "Benten-sama" other than Enami-san, and we've received similar questions. First of all, the voice was done by Yuko Mita, who has been very active recently. Then, as for whether she will appear in the future, unfortunately there are no plans for that at the moment. (Kitty Film) [2]


Footnotes
  • [1] After months of using a certain episode number count that divided a single episode into two separate ones, the production staff seems to have stopped numbering the episodes altogether, which will lead to the more unified episode listings that counted two fifteen minute episodes as a single episode.
  • [2] Rumiko Takahashi has said that it was due to Benten's portrayal in Only You that she realized what a fun character she is and decided to bring her back in the manga again.
